Y Fork Padding what is a Y fork or Motor Support Bracket?

There are many types of ‘motor support brackets’ on the market and if you use one of these you may want to add extra strength to your Full cover.
We can add a ‘double thickness’ layer to leg section of the cover to help improve the life of the cover when using these brackets.
Below are some examples of the brackets available:-

What you need to do is outlined below to ensure your cover will last many years using a Y fork or trailer saver:

  1. You need to pad the trailer saver or Y fork (marked in black below) with either foam or rubber padding as outlined in RED on the diagram below. This will help prevent rubbing on our covers.

  2. By also adding this padding it will ensure that the zip pictured in the diagram below in GREEN is not crushed when inserting the motor leg into the Y fork or trailer saver.

  3. Once the leg is placed into the travelling position please ensure that you also use a tie down to stop the motor leg jumping or moving in the Y fork or trailer saver. Movement causes rubbing and this will wear through the cover over time.

  4. We will add another layer of material usually between the prop and just above the cavertation plate.
